<DIV class=MsoNormal>Amongst the signs of the hypocrites is that they flee from 
the ranks of the Muslims. This man will desert you and be pessimistic and 
constantly in fear. He will say:&nbsp; "<I><FONT color=#000099>The disbelievers 
are stronger than Muslims, Israel has technology and strength which Allaah does 
not know about!</FONT></I>" He mocks and ridicules saying: "<I><FONT 
color=#000099>Are the Muslims capable of fighting America, the owner of nuclear 
weapons and atomic bombs? They are not capable. We Muslims are doomed to 
destruction and annihilation, we are weak and in poverty.</FONT></I>"&nbsp; 
<BR>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV class=MsoNormal>This is <I>his</I> opinion.&nbsp; <BR>&nbsp;</DIV>
<P>Therefore, you will find that the hypocrites who have gone to the countries 
of the west have become <I>brainwashed</I> and have taken on the role of being 
representatives for the disbelievers, the colonialists and the foreigners. 
<I>Yet they are our own sons</I>, constantly portraying the 'might' of America, 
her strengths, her rockets and her airplanes. However, in contrast they mention 
the weakness of the Muslims and their humiliation because they do not believe 
that honour and strength is from <I>Allaah</I>.&nbsp; </P>

<P>Allaah, the <I>Sublime</I>, says:&nbsp;

<P>"<B><I><FONT color=#990000>The example of those who take protectors besides 
Allaah is like the&nbsp;</FONT></I></B> <BR><B><I><FONT color=#990000>example of

<P>But the hypocrite does not understand that honour is with <I>Allaah</I>, so 
he constantly turns away from the Muslims. 
<P>When the jihaad that took place in Afghanistan was mentioned to him he would 
say: "<I><FONT color=#000099>Do you really think that the Russians will leave 
the mujaahidoon. They will soon pulverise them. There is no comparison between 
the two. Russia has the abilities and powers that Allaah does not know 
about!</FONT></I>"&nbsp; 
<P>When he heard about the youth who were about to embark on jihaad, he would 
say: "<I><FONT color=#000099>I do not think that they will go, as I have just 
heard of a massive battle [where it occurred] that the mujaahidoon, may Allaah 
help them, have taken a brutal thrashing.</FONT></I>"&nbsp; 
<P>When he sees someone going to lectures or talks, he flees from him and says: 
"<I><FONT color=#000099>I don't see any benefit in these lectures. There is 
nothing in them but 'Fear Allaah, Fear Allaah'!</FONT></I>"&nbsp; 
<P>Yet are there more beautiful and beneficial words than "<I>Fear Allaah!</I>" 
Or [words] more lofty and more noble or graceful? <I>By Allaah never!</I> 
<P>He says to his colleagues:&nbsp; 
<P>"<I><FONT color=#000099>Don't attend the lessons, these things go on all the 
time, its better for you that you stay at home, don't waste your time.&nbsp; You 
will find the most important things in the books and 
magazines.</FONT></I>"&nbsp; 
<P>All of this is from the abandonment and <I>desertion</I> of Muslims and is 
one of the signs of hypocrisy.&nbsp; 
<P><B><I>Refuge from this is only with Allaah!</I></B></P>
